Moore has long been linked to Alan Moore, who has known him "since he [Alan] was fourteen" referring to him as "a friend... fellow comic writer [and] a fellow occultist",

Moore was an editor of Bob Rickard's long-running UK-based "Journal of the Unexplained" The Fortean Times. In later years, he also edited that publication's more academic sister-publication Fortean Studies. He is listed as a 'specialist contributor' to the Chambers Dictionary of the Unexplained, which also notes that he compiled the Fortean Times' General Index, and several derivative books. He is a freelance writer on diverse topics, and "lives in London [where he] interests himself mainly in ancient and oriental subjects". The Chambers Dictionary of the Unexplained team.

UK comics work

Moore's comics work has featured in most of the major British comics, particularly in anthologies. He has been involved with 2000 AD from its earliest days, writing the second story-arc of their Dan Dare-revival "Hollow World" (Progs 12—23), and devising the Future Shocks format for Prog #25 with his "King of the World".

Later work for 2000 AD includes "Red Fang" (with artist Steve Yeowell), "Valkyries" (with American artist John Lucas) and a series of one-off short fantasy stories collected under the name Tales of Telguuth (with multiple artists).

He wrote the earliest adventures of the Doctor for Doctor Who Weekly (later Doctor Who Magazine), as well as co-creating the character Abslom Daak (with artist Steve Dillon) for the same publication. (Many stories were reprinted by Marvel and Marvel UK, including as back-up features to Jamie Delano's Captain Britain in The Daredevils.) Also for Marvel UK he wrote Hulk and Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. stories in Hulk Comic.

He also wrote several stories in Warrior, including, as Pedro Henry, a revival of his Axel Pressbutton character from Sounds.

He was featured in the anthology A1 (including a strip with fellow-Fortean Hunt Emerson on "Fortean Times" in #2), alongside comics luminaries.

Alan Moore-related work

He wrote "Young Tom Strong" and "Jonni Future" in Tom Strong's Terrific Tales, an 12 issue anthology series from Alan Moore's America's Best Comics line.

He wrote the novelisation of the film V for Vendetta, based on the comics of the same name, by Alan Moore and David Lloyd.

He is co-writing The Moon and Serpent Bumper Book of Magic with Alan Moore, planned to be published by Top Shelf. Catalog > Top Shelf Productions

Other

He scripted Marvel Comics' adaptation of the James Bond film Octopussy, published in Marvel Comics Super Special #26 (1983).

His work has been published by Eclipse Comics in the US, much of it reprinted from Warrior. He wrote most of the stories for John Bolton's Halls of Horror, as well as Axel Pressbutton and Laser Eraser and Pressbutton.

Alan Moore wrote a long biographical essay about him, entitled "Unearthing", which is included in the Iain Sinclair-edited anthology City of Disappearances. In early 2008, it was reported that this essay is being adapted into a "photo-illustrated hardcover novel, with some fumetti elements and visuals by Mitch Jenkins," to be published by Top Shelf Comics.

Later work includes Hercules: The Thracian Wars at Radical Comics which Peter Berg has optioned in conjunction with Universal Studios and Spyglass Entertainment. He is following that with Hercules: The Knives of Kush, a 5-issue limited series set in Egypt. Moore has said this is his final comics work for now, although he is still writing in other areas:
